today was the original and correct day for meeting lizette in brooklyn for brunch together. we went to a diner near her apartment (clark's) and had a lovely time together, walking around afterwards and visiting her favorite bakery and the new bookstore in her neighborhood.
the one dollar water man (which i sent to greg as he always joins in with the chant when we pass by in the car) . .
eggs hollandaise with avocado, potato pancakes and bacon. i couldn't finish it all and brought the leftovers home! lizette had a poached egg with potato pancakes . . all delicious!
we took a selfie in front of the health food store perelandra (the title is from a book that is part of a c. s. lewis trilogy which i read a few years ago). i also came away with some goodies (local kombucha, a favorite bar of soap, organic herbal tea and organic valley granola bars, all things i haven't been able to get in my neighborhood; health food stores, book stores and libraries are some of my favorite places).
heading home . .
a new tourist attraction - you stand on a disc with a camera that rotates around so you have a 360 degree nyc background with the alicia keys new york song and which you can then post to instagram or tik tok.
i was very thirsty as it was extremely hot, so i stopped at billy's bakery where i used to go often with chanda when she took ballet class nearby at the gelsey kirkland academy. unfortunately, they didn't allow indoor seating (i was hoping to sit and cool off in their air conditioning) so i took my cupcakes to go and happily sipped at the ice cold lemonade the rest of the way home. it was very refreshing!
